NHTSA // CRASH-TESTED
2025 Toyota Land Cruiser
Federal crash-test performance, recalls, and complaints, scored into one NHTSA Safety Index.
The Toyota Land Cruiser is a full-size, body-on-frame SUV with a lineage stretching back decades and a reputation built on serious off-road capability. Positioned at the premium end of the truck-based SUV segment, it targets buyers who want genuine expedition-grade utility alongside everyday comfort. The 2019-to-2025 generation competes in a rarefied space occupied by the Ford Expedition and Land Rover Defender.
The 2025 Toyota Land Cruiser earns an NHTSA Safety Index of 86 out of 100, an strong result driven by its federal crash-test stars and its recall record. No vehicle recalls are on file for this model year.
- new and teen drivers who want standard crash-avoidance tech
- urban drivers exposed to side-impact risk
Reviewers generally praise the Land Cruiser for its commanding road presence, robust off-road credentials, and premium interior refinement. They tend to note that the driving experience prioritizes capability and comfort over outright agility, and that the vehicle's size and price place it in a niche that rewards buyers with specific adventure-oriented needs rather than those seeking a mainstream family hauler.
